Hey everyone.
For some reason I can't remove embedded album art from Wv files. Is that a known issue or am I doing something wrong?
Whenever I rightclick a cover and choose to remove it, it just shows up again after saving.

That's the first time someone reports an issue like that.
Can you please upload an example file to [drop.io](http://drop.io) and send me the link to my [contact address](http://www.mp3tag.de/en/contact.html)?

I sent you a sample file via E-Mail. Did you get it?

Yup, I received it and found it in my Spam folder 🙂
I've tried to remove the cover and everything went fine. Do you have writing of APEv2 enabled at Options \> Tags \> Ape, Mpc ... and saved the changes after removing the cover?

Oh boy. I'm a fool. 
Writing APEv2 was indeed disabled.
Thank you for everything. Sorry for wasting your time.
